Paperback books with a DETECTIVE and MYSTERY theme may be found below. I do not collect DETECTIVE and MYSTERY, or normally get involved with them in any way, so they are priced to fly off my shelves and free up space for Science Fiction. If you are interested in these, feel free to make an offer for large quantities. Some that grade good are well read, so except for the few books that have some collector interest, I would treat them as reading copies rather than collectibles.
I have not always been consistant in where I place DETECTIVE and MYSTERY. So if you are interested in DETECTIVE and MYSTERY, also check ACE DOUBLES and Collectible Paperbacks for a scattering of DETECTIVE and MYSTERY mixed in there. See the bottom of this page for links to my Science Fiction and other collectible paperbacks. Or click on the home image (bottom of page) to see links to my hardcover books and pulp magazines.
If you choose to order some of these for your collection, be sure to carefully read my ordering instructions. (why?) so send any orders to me at:
